Cordelia sat slumped at her desk, now changed into her cozy pajamas. Elbows planted firmly on the wood, she cradled her smartphone in her hands, awaiting a reply from the members of her social group chat.
Since yesterday, the question had been gnawing at her, who exactly was Everard? Even Sanderson, the guy who knew everyone in town, didn’t recognize the name. Could it be that Everard was a ghost, a figment of her Imagination?
This morning’s chat in the Pioneers Group sparked a realization, the group was a melting pot of professionals from various fields. Surely someone might know him, right?
But after she posted her question, the chat fell eerily silent.
After a torturous two–minute wait, a reply finally popped up.
Bland asked, [Lia, are you pulling our leg? How could you not know him?]
Cordelia blinked, her instincts telling her that Bland knew Everard. She typed back hastily, [Who is he?]
Silence fell over the group once again.
Just as she was about to probe further, another message came through.
Nolnterruptions said, [Never heard of him.]
Like an icebreaker, the message prompted a flurry of responses.
Pianoman said, [Nope, doesn’t ring a bell.]
Mathster replied, [A mystery to me.]
Painter said, [Who?]
Chef replied, [Not a clue.]
Others all replied, [No idea.]
Everyone chimed in except Louie Adams. Cordelia’s brow furrowed as she read the stream of ignorance, finally addressing Bland directly, [So, you’re the one who knows him, @Bland?]
Bland replied, [No, I definitely do not.]
